I have to admit that the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Seattle is one of my favorite hotels in one of my favorite cities. Of course, a big part of that is how frequent Goldpassport Diamonds are upgraded to suites. Evertime I’ve stayed here, save one, I’ve received a complimentary diamond upgrade to a suite. This time was no different.

Unilike some other “Grand” Hyatts I’ve stayed at, this property is in great shape and not needing a makeover. My only disappointment was the evening hors-d'oeurvres at the Grand Club. It seemed like they had taken quite a hit since my visit here last summer. The food selection seemed to be meager and rarely replenished. The continental breakfast at the Grand Club was good....what one would expect from such a breakfast in the club.

The suite is a 'true' suite in that it has a seperate bedroom and a seperate living area. It also has a spacious bathroom. This particular suite did not have a bar area in the living area, unlike another suite that I had another time at this property.

Modern and comfortable Hyatt bed.

Very functional desk area. The plugs were a bit inconvenient, but nothing too bad.

The living room was very comfortable and great for talking with a small group of friends.

A view from the suite's main entrance.

The television and min-bar in the living room. Unfortunately, there was no refrigerator as there was no wet bar area in this particular suite.

This was a corner suite which gave me a great view of the Hyat Olive8 next door.
